    Donald Duck is exercising executive authority, which is to say, he is exercising his right as a billionaire to do whatever the fuck he wants, just like Fox News saying whatever the fuck they want and Google reading all your emails if they want. Being immune from prosecution, is no different for him than being able to declare bankruptcy, or jay walk.

    At Trump’s Inauguration, $10,000 for Makeup and Lots of Room Service
    By Maggie Haberman, Sharon LaFraniere and Ben Protess
    Jan. 14, 2019

    At Trump’s Inauguration, $10,000 for Makeup and Lots of Room Service

    excerpts:

    "In 72 days, it laid out about $100 million, roughly twice as much or more than was raised by Barack Obama or George W. Bush for their first and second presidential inaugurations.

    The expansive spending reflected Mr. Trump’s desire to make a grand entrance, with roughly 20 events around Washington, people familiar with the events said. It also had the hallmarks of previous Trump efforts, such as the campaign, with some Trump-family friends circumventing existing chains of command.

    Disclosure of the spending details comes at a time when the inaugural committee is facing legal scrutiny over the donations that funded it."


    "Much of the spending, while outsize, was mundane. Documents reviewed by The Times accounted for the entire $107 million raised for the inaugural, with most of the money going to payroll expenses and roughly 40 entities, the bulk of which were hotel chains and other vendors.

    Roughly $5 million went to charity, which organizers have noted is the most ever for an inaugural committee."

    Quote of a blogger:


    "“To the farmers, Go buy more land. There will be more tractors sold, they’re going to be bigger and better and more powerful and they’re going to be made by John Deere and Case [IH] and Caterpillar,” Trump said during a rally in Lake Charles, Louisiana on Friday.

    To the GM workers in Lordstown OH. "Don't sell your house. Add on, buy more stuff!" This plant will not close. Plant Closed!

    To Carrier in Indpls. Don't move, I'm going to save your plant. It will be a historic deal. Plant Closed.

    Sep 5, 2019 - The president of United Mine Workers of America said Wednesday that the coal industry is not "back," despite President Donald Trump's claims.

    See the pattern here?"

    Trump’s new press secretary has 2 DUI arrests, was fired for plagiarism and cheating on expenses

    Trump’s new press secretary has 2 DUI arrests, was fired for plagiarism and cheating on expenses - Front Page Live

    excerpt:

    "The current press secretary has two DUI’s on her record — including one while she was working on Trump’s election campaign!

    In 2013, she was arrested for driving under the influence, driving with an invalid license, and speeding. Although, those charges were reduced to a single reckless driving charge.

    The second DUI came in 2015. She pled guilty to that DUI offense. Grisham says that the administration is aware of her past and that she “complied with all sanctions and disclosed both episodes to the White House.”

    Drunken driving isn’t the only shady area in Grisham’s past, however. According to the New York Times, the current White House press secretary was let go from a job at AAA Arizona due to filing false expense reports and travel claims.

    The Times notes, “Ms. Grisham lost a subsequent job after an accusation of plagiarism.”

    Since accepting her position as White House press secretary, Grisham hasn’t really had much interaction with the press. There haven’t been any press briefings at all, and she has done very little in the way of talking to reporters."

    An advanced AI was withheld from public scrutiny until recently, due to fears it might be abused, because it can read and interpret any text you put out and can be used to generate fake news. Along with advances in Game theory and fact checkers, you could create an AI that will tell anybody whatever they want to hear, begging the question of what is "fake news". Note that such AI are highly sought after in the video game and porn industries.

    The answer to Donald Duck's professional wrestling smack talk, is to help his audience choke on their own crap.

    He was one of the first prisoners released under Trump's criminal justice reform law. Now he's accused of murder. - CNN

    excerpt:

    "Providence, Rhode Island (CNN)Joel Francisco was 14 years into a life sentence for selling crack cocaine when he got his second chance.

    A landmark piece of criminal justice reform legislation, passed with the support of President Donald Trump and rare bipartisan backing, had made Francisco newly eligible for an older law that reduced the sentences for convicted crack dealers.

    Behind bars, the former gang leader had made "significant efforts toward post-conviction rehabilitation" and had separated himself from the "proverbial 'herd'" while "committing himself to a law-abiding life," he wrote in an application for his release.

    In February, with the approval of federal prosecutors and a district court judge, Francisco became one of the first federal prisoners to walk free as a result of the First Step Act.

    Last month, he was handcuffed again, accused this time of stabbing to death 46-year-old Troy Pine at a Providence, Rhode Island, hookah lounge."

    After all of his backstabbings, Trump himself finally gets stabbed in the back.



    ‘Baby Trump’ protest ends when man stabs balloon; arrest made

    excerpt:

    "Jim Girvan, an organizer of the balloon protests, told the Associated Press charged the balloon with a knife and cut an 8-foot-long (2.4-meter-long) gash in the back. Girvan said the unidentified man was arrested."

    A reminder that in Libertarian Texas it is legal to shoot a hooker if she tries to steal your wallet. I think they wrote that one just for our glorious leader, hoping he would visit.

    Some of Trump's supporters are actually willing to pay him money to wear such a garment and be blessed with the privilege of being seen in his presence.

    Stabbing Donald Duck to death in effigy is not a crime.
